FIGHT THE TOWER! Stop Cell Tower Construction in Residential HousingI live in the condo across the street. My bedroom is less than 300 feet from the proposed tower site. As a home owner, I cannot get out of this tower's path. I already suffer from electromagnetic radiation poisoning, with daily headaches when I talk on a cell phone for longer than 5 minutes. If this tower is constructed, I might as well stick my head in a microwave!120 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Dahveed Kolodny-Nagy

Hawai'i Governor Candidates: Promise not to appoint Colleen Hanabusa Attorney GeneralColleen Hanabusa is losing the Democratic primary by a slim margin. Apparently, despite common sense, she thinks she can get enough votes from the two Puna districts hit by Hurricane Iselle if she can delay their make-up election or force them to vote by mail (we'll leave it to your imagination how she could change the results if they vote by mail.) Rumor is that Hanabusa is hoping for the Attorney General position when she loses her ambitious attempt at the senate. Let's nip this in the bud!59 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Karen Chun

Salt Lake City: Allow ride-sharing like Lyft and UberUber and Lyft provide affordable alternative transportation for residents and visitors to Salt Lake City. Currently, the city is sending secret shoppers to “catch” Lyft and Uber drivers to fine them for not having the proper license to be a taxi. The city claims that it is enforcing these antiquated laws to ensure a level playing field between new companies and old cab companies. The real issue is that these old cab companies have provided such low service that a need for new companies is needed, and has been embraced. Companies like Lyft provide safe, easy, convenient transportation that is far superior to that of any of the cab companies that service Salt Lake City. Under Utah law these drivers are not breaking any laws, only that of the City. We believe that the Mayor and Council-members of Salt Lake City should embrace the new sharing economy and remove the ordinances and restrictions on drivers in the sharing economy and align with the laws of Utah. These drivers should not be under any regulation beyond that of a regular licensed driver in the state of Utah.1,407 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Guy Warner

Alaska: Tell the EPA to ban bee-killing pesticidesEurope has already fought back against powerful chemical companies and took a big step to protect bees by putting into effect a ban of the top bee-killing “neonic” pesticides. Now it’s our turn! Join Friends of the Earth and our allies in demanding that the EPA take immediate action to protect bees! Bees are critical in producing the majority of our food crops and the evidence is mounting that Bayer and Syngenta’s pesticides are a key contributor to mass bee die-offs. However, the EPA continues to ignore scientists -- even those employed by the EPA -- and has delayed action until 2018. But the bees can’t wait -- and neither can we! U.S. beekeepers have been consistently losing 40-100 percent of their hives. This winter, beekeepers are likely facing yet another season of historic bee die offs. We can’t let the EPA wait another four years to address this crisis. Please take action today and tell the EPA to ban bee-killing pesticides.347 of 400 SignaturesCreated by Peter Stocker
